The selective frequency damping (SFD) method is an alternative to classical Newtons method to obtain unstable steady-state solutions of dynamical systems. However this method has two main limitations: it does not converge for arbitrary control parameters; and when it does converge, the time necessary to reach the steady-state solution may be very long. In this paper we present an adaptive algorithm to address these two issues. We show that by evaluating the dominant eigenvalue of a partially converged steady flow, we can select a control coefficient and a filter width that ensure an optimum convergence of the SFD method. We apply this adaptive method to several classical test cases of computational fluid dynamics and we show that a steady-state solution can be obtained without any a priori knowledge of the flow stability properties.

We present an alternative encapsulated formulation of the Selective Frequency Damping method for finding unstable equilibria of dynamical systems, which is particularly useful when analysing the stability of fluid flows. The formulation makes use of splitting methods, which means that it can be wrapped around an existing time-stepping code as a black box. The method is first applied to a scalar problem in order to analyse its stability and highlight the roles of the control coefficient $chi$ and the filter width $Delta$ in the convergence (or not) towards the steady-state. Then the steady-state of the incompressible flow past a two-dimensional cylinder at $Re=100$, obtained with a code which implements the spectral/hp element method, is presented.
Many parts of biological organisms are comprised of deformable porous media. The biological media is both pliable enough to deform in response to an outside force and can deform by itself using the work of an embedded muscle. For example, the recent work (Ludeman et al., 2014) has demonstrated interesting sneezing dynamics of a freshwater sponge, when the sponge contracts and expands to clear itself from surrounding polluted water. We derive the equations of motion for the dynamics of such an active porous media (i.e., a deformable porous media that is capable of applying a force to itself with internal muscles), filled with an incompressible fluid. These equations of motion extend the earlier derived equation for a passive porous media filled with an incompressible fluid. We use a variational approach with a Lagrangian written as the sum of terms representing the kinetic and potential energy of the elastic matrix, and the kinetic energy of the fluid, coupled through the constraint of incompressibility. We then proceed to extend this theory by computing the case when both the active porous media and the fluid are incompressible, with the porous media still being deformable, which is often the case for biological applications. For the particular case of a uniform initial state, we rewrite the equations of motion in terms of two coupled telegraph-like equations for the material (Lagrangian) particles expressed in the Eulerian frame of reference, particularly suitable for numerical simulations, formulated for both the compressible media/incompressible fluid case and the doubly incompressible case. We derive interesting conservation laws for the motion, perform numerical simulations in both cases and show the possibility of self-propulsion of a biological organism due to particular running wave-like application of the muscle stress.
With the aim of efficiently simulating three-dimensional multiphase turbulent flows with a phase-field method, we propose a new discretization scheme for the biharmonic term (the 4th-order derivative term) of the Cahn-Hilliard equation. This novel sc heme can significantly reduce the computational cost while retaining the same accuracy as the original procedure. Our phase-field method is built on top of a direct numerical simulation solver, named AFiD (www.afid.eu) and open-sourced by our research group. It relies on a pencil distributed parallel strategy and a FFT-based Poisson solver. To deal with large density ratios between the two phases, a pressure split method [1] has been applied to the Poisson solver. To further reduce computational costs, we implement a multiple-resolution algorithm which decouples the discretizations for the Navier-Stokes equations and the scalar equation: while a stretched wall-resolving grid is used for the Navier-Stokes equations, for the Cahn-Hilliard equation we use a fine uniform mesh. The present method shows excellent computational performance for large-scale computation: on meshes up to 8 billion nodes and 3072 CPU cores, a multiphase flow needs only slightly less than 1.5 times the CPU time of the single-phase flow solver on the same grid. The present method is validated by comparing the results to previous studies for the cases of drop deformation in shear flow, including the convergence test with mesh refinement, and breakup of a rising buoyant bubble with density ratio up to 1000. Finally, we simulate the breakup of a big drop and the coalescence of O(10^3) drops in turbulent Rayleigh-Benard convection at a Rayleigh number of $10^8$, observing good agreement with theoretical results.
The influence of the texture of a hydrophobic surface on the electro-osmotic slip of the second kind and the electrokinetic instability near charge-selective surfaces (permselective membranes, electrodes, or systems of micro- and nanochannels) is inv estigated theoretically using a simple model based on the Rubinstein-Zaltzman approach. A simple formula is derived to evaluate the decrease in the instability threshold due to hydrophobicity. The study is complemented by numerical investigations both of linear and nonlinear instabilities near a hydrophobic membrane surface. Theory predicts a significant enhancement of the ion flux to the surface and shows a good qualitative agreement with the available experimental data.
We study propagation of traveling waves in a blood filled elastic artery with an axially symmetric dilatation (an idealized aneurysm) in long-wave approximation.The processes in the injured artery are modelled by equations for the motion of the wall of the artery and by equation for the motion of the fluid (the blood). For the case when balance of nonlinearity, dispersion and dissipation in such a medium holds the model equations are reduced to a version of the Korteweg-deVries-Burgers equation with variable coefficients. Exact travelling-wave solution of this equation is obtained by the modified method of simplest equation where the differential equation of Riccati is used as a simplest equation. Effects of the dilatation geometry on the travelling-wave profile are considered.
